Kinda. My boss said he lost a lot of weight doing DDR. I seen specials on MTV where kids said they lost a lot of weight doing it too even though they do it for fun mostly. Guess that's not a bad side effect for a game.

DDR stands for the Deutsche Demokratische Republik or East Germany. It was a political exercise.

The German Democratic Republic (GDR; German: Deutsche Demokratische Republik, or DDR; informally known in English as East Germany) was a Communist state, which existed from 1949 to 1990 in the Soviet Zone of occupied Germany (SBZ). The German Democratic Republic was proclaimed in East Berlin on October 7, 1949 in the Soviet-occupied zone of Germany, following the proclamation in May 1949 of the Federal Republic of Germany ("West Germany") in the zones of Germany formerly occupied by the United States, Britain and France. It claimed Berlin (in practice, East Berlin) as its capital, although this status was disputed by the western allies, who considered the city under occupation and formally not part of any state.
The Republic was declared fully sovereign in 1955; however, Soviet troops remained based on the four-power Potsdam agreement. East Germany was a member of the Warsaw Pact. Following the fall of the Berlin Wall on November 9, 1989 and strong popular pressure, free elections were held on March 18, 1990, and the ruling communist party (SED) lost its majority in the Volkskammer (the East German parliament). On August 23 the Volkskammer decided that the territory of the Republic would accede to the ambit of the Basic Law for the Federal Republic of Germany on October 3, 1990. As a result of German reunification on that date, the German Democratic Republic ceased to exist.

Yes, there is even work out mode on the game. However, you can not get on for 10 minutes and call it good, you have to dance on that thing for at LEAST half an hour.
I personally know someone who lost about 40lbs dancing on that thing nonstop.
